Fanny Sanín is a Colombian painter and engraver whose career has been fundamental to the development of geometric abstraction in Latin America. She studied Fine Arts at the Universidad de Los Andes in Bogotá and in 1962 participated in the XIV Salón de Artistas Nacionales, where she presented her first painting, *Óleo N.º 1*. That same year she moved to the United States to pursue studies in printmaking and art history at the University of Illinois. After returning briefly to Colombia, she participated in the XVI Salón de Artistas Nacionales (1964) before moving to Monterrey, Mexico. By 1966, she had settled in London to further her studies in engraving at the Chelsea School of Art and the Central School of Art. In 1968 she returned to Monterrey, and in 1971 she established permanent residence in New York, where she continues to live and work.
